As I already pointed out, however, London's 3rd biggest team has been a franchise since Day 1 of their history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you dont like him put him on ignore or dont read his posts, the constant need to spoil any thread of his or almost any thread he posts on is a joke. Dont like him? dont read his posts.

Harry Palmer Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 And now that I'm right on the name part, what does green and gold imply? I'm still looking for what a "rollseyes" mean followed by "exactly" and of course " I suspect you know." Can't be Celtic related, so what is it? Apologies for not getting back to you as I thought it would be very clear to most Heart of Midlothian fans including yourself.

So I'll bow to the hack this time. White mentions it because he was the first post Busby manager not to be a Catholic. I don't know about your mate but the Manchester Celtic thing above was a suggestion when the club changed its name in 1902 and roundly rejected, as was Manchester Central (that the Celtic name should be suggested given the large Irish Catholic immigrant population in Manchester at the turn of the 20th century is no surprise, given that the outfit in Glasgow was enjoying relative success). Not strange at all given how rare it was. It would have been strange if they had no religious affiliation. I suppose you know the religious affiliations of the pre-war managers like Ernest Mangnall, JJ Bentley and Scott Duncan, for example? Thought not.

Bert Le Clos Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 This is an utterly pointless thread. There is absolutely no chance whatsoever of Manchester United going bust, I am 100% certain of that. The Glazer's are a business. As soon as they stop making money out of the Manchester United franchise they will sell-up. And there will be plenty of people willing to step in and form a consortium to buy them out, regardless of how much debt there is, becuase with Man United's fan base they will always make money eventually. So as long as the Glazer's are inc ontrol of United, you can assume financially they are doing OK. I know Therapist is trolling, but I'll stay on topic and stuck to facts rather than getting involved in personal insults. Man U are in debt to the Glazer's just as Chelsea are in debt to Abramovic (although I accept Man U are in more debt, although on this point I would argue they have more assets and income). Man U finished 1 point behind Chelsea in the league, both won a cup competition but Manchester United progressed further in the Champions league. Chelsea spent about ?20m last season on Yuri Zhirkov and Nemanja Matic while Man U spent roughly the same on Antonio Valencia and Gabriel Obertan. This season Chelsea have spent about ?30m on Ramires and Benayoun plus two other youngters while Man U have spent ?23m on Smalling, Henrnandez and Bebe. So given the facts, how exactly are Chelsea in any different a situation than Man U? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denny Crane Posted August 21, 2010 Share Posted August 21, 2010 My source is Jim White's official biography of United which mentions Big Ron being a Protestant. I have a tendency to believe Big Ron believes in Big Ron and no higher power in any case, He used to believe in Ratner's until the head prophet denounced his beliefs! As for the green and gold stuff spouted by the OP - aka the poor man's Glenn Beck - so what. Rangers once had an away top which mirrored the Papal Guard's uniform.
